<strong>Star Wars: Resistance</strong> (animated series) - a general discussion thread
Time

ChainsawAsh said:

I’m hoping this is all from the first episode, though. If not, this show is going to get very bland, very quickly - I want to see some variation in locations and visuals rather than everything being bright, pastel, and on a water planet…

i agree. one of Rebels’ main flaws was how much Lothal there was.

Is <em>Revenge of the Sith</em> the Best or Worst Prequel?

to be fair, dialogue in RotS is at times much better than in TLJ imo.

If you are serious, would you care to cite examples?

sure. when i get home i’ll be sure to get you some examples. but maybe in another thread or in a pm, since i think the point of this thread was to stop talking about TLJ and the ST, so i’m sorry for bringing it up dom.

Discussion: Have you Bought TLJ Action Figures?

I don’t even know where to buy Star Wars figures in-store now, with Toys 'R Us gone. The last figure I bought was the 5" Peter Capaldi/Matt Smith Doctor Who set, a line that is now completely dead. But I just can’t justify spending money on any toys. I only got that Doctor Who one to update a 12 Doctors set I received as a gift.

My Walmart (sorry mfm)

George was quoted as saying in 2012 , " Why should I make more when everyone yells at you and says what a terrible person you are ?"…granted , he came back after the Disney merger ,had a meltdown , then came to acceptance and then came back to support all the subsequent productions .I watched Mark Hamill’s ceremony for his star on the walk of fame earlier this year and George Lucas and Harrison Ford attended , an interviewer asked Lucas about Star Wars and he said he had nothing to say . I think he is still going through the stages of grief. He did say it was like a divorce after all . Also . on the subject of Jar Jar , Ahmed best has started doing some field notes on the backlash of his character , seems he feels George could have stuck up for him a bit more …https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoRD_SfIbwE

Maybe Lucas should have taken a deeper look at why the fans were yelling at him and saying what a terrible person he was? Maybe he should have more open to the idea that (gasp!) he could have made mistakes that led to the fan hate. The thing is, he could made a lot of the fan hate go away by doing one simple thing: give the oot the release it deserves.

Ah, so the abused should ask himself or herself, why he or she deserves to be abused, rather than expect respectful discourse?

Lucas is not a battered wife.

Kelly-Mary Tran, and Ahmed Best are not battered wifes… I don’t see how that has anything to do with toxic behaviour towards creators of a work for not getting what you want.

You referred to to Lucas like he was an a victim of abuse. He isn’t.

jesus warb. he literally said he didn’t want to make anymore movies due to the amount of attacks towards him. there’s no excuse for that.

The Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread

Here’s some context for the clip:

The Sovereign (Trade Federation) have discreetly occupied the small world of Naboo under the orders of an unknown benefactor. The senate is suspicious after 2 days with no contact with the planet. Two Jedi Knights are sent by Naboo’s senator Palpatine to investigate. They also go radio silent. The Senate is on edge.

Remember to turn on subtitles!

Passoword: Bibble

The whole point of The Phantom Menace in the grand scheme of the trilogy is to show Palpatine scheming his way to power. This edit (I hope) helps show that a little better and makes everyone’s intentions very clear. Hypothetical first time viewers may assume that Valorum is the mystery benefactor, when in reality it’s Palpatine.

is this going to be in Destroy All Jedi?
